A system for actuating a blocker door of a thrust reverser, in which a drag link assembly is removed from the airflow through the engine during flight. The assembly couples the door to a sleeve so that translation of the sleeve between deployed and stowed positions moves the door to open and closed positions, respectively. The assembly includes a telescoping drag link having one end rotatably coupled with a drag link anchor and another end coupled with the door. During deployment and stowage, translation of the sleeve causes the door to move and the link to extend or collapse and rotate until it contacts a stop element of the anchor, and then rotate in the opposite direction as the door opens or closes, respectively. A channel may be provided in the door to accommodate the link. The anchor may include a spring which exerts a rotational force on the link.
